Hi, I'm trying to update my K3 using the firmware utility on Linux (Debian Lenny.)
So far, I've a) Downloaded the tarball b) Created a directory for the tools: $ cd ~ ; mkdir Elecraft c) Unpacked the tarball: $ tar -zxvf k3utility.tgz -C Elecraft d) Run the application. It's talking to the rig fine, and detects the current firmware version. However, when I try to download new firmware, I get this: 00:12:15 K3 Utility for Linux Version 1.2.3.18 00:12:28 K3 is running MCU version 03.03. RS232 speed is 9600 bps. 00:12:38 Connecting to ftp.elecraft.com. Please be patient, this takes a few seconds. 00:12:55 hfwnotes.rtf 00:12:55 beta 00:12:55 old 00:12:55 K3UtilityVersionInfo.txt 00:12:55 DTBL0009.HEX 00:12:55 TBOOT7.HEX 00:12:55 hmcu0311.hex 00:12:56 HDSP0215.HEX 00:12:56 HAUX0215.HEX 00:12:56 hfpf0100.hex 00:12:56 bash: line 0: cd: /home/clarkema/Elecraft/K3_Firmware: No such file or directory As a result, the downloaded files are saved in $HOME/Elecraft, rather than $HOME/Elecraft/K3_Firmware, and it seems the firmware updater doesn't detect them. I tried: $ cd ~ ; rm -rf Elecraft ; mkdir Elecraft $ tar -zxvf k3utility.tgz -C Elecraft $ cd Elecraft $ mkdir K3_Firmware and then tried the update again. This time, the files are downloaded without complaint, and stored in $HOME/Elecraft/K3_Firmware. However, when the download is complete, I get an error dialog: "An exception of class NilObjectException was not handled. The application must shut down." Any suggestions?
